When we'd stood and wondered
where our lives were going,
not knowing our hearts had blundered
still we waited for the midnight crowing.
We thought we could begin our journey
at the morning's first light,
and when the fires were lowly burning
we had seen that beautiful sight
At light's last waning glow
we realised our folly
and felt love's striking blow.
We fell and neither was sorry
as we were consumed by the falling snow
